Effect of deficit irrigation and methyl jasmonate application on the composition of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) fruit and leaves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Drought stress is among the most severe environmental risks threatening strawberry production. In the present study, the effect of deficit irrigation (DI; 50 mL/day) and/or elicitation with methyl jasmonate (MeJA; 0.1 mM) on the composition of secondary ...

Novel applications of the tomato microbiome: Roles and considerations for agriculture, human health, and society

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...

Enhancing Wheat Yield and Quality Through Late-Season Foliar Nitrogen Application: A Global Meta-Analysis

open access: yesAgronomy
Late-season foliar nitrogen (N) application is widely employed to improve wheat grain yield and protein concentration, particularly during later growth stages when root activity declines and N uptake becomes less efficient.

Turfgrass species response exposed to increasing rates of glyphosate application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
To investigate the response of nine turfgrass species exposed to increasing rates of glyphosate application, the dry matter production, visual leaf injury symptoms (e.g., chlorosis and necrosis) and the concentrations of shikimate and mineral nutrients ...

Foliar Fungicide Application Alters the Culturable Foliar Fungal Endophyte Community in Corn

open access: yesPhytobiomes Journal
Fungicides have been applied to crops for decades with the primary aim of managing fungal pathogens and diseases. However, as interest in the plant microbiome has grown, so too have questions about potential nontarget effects of pest management on native microbiota.

Foliar Fertilization and Fungicide Application for Soybean

open access: yes, 2007
Numerous trials conducted in Iowa since the 1970s have shown that foliar fertilization results in small, infrequent, and difficult to predict soybean yield responses. Work in the 1970s suggested that spraying N-P-K-S mixtures at late growth stages increased yield, but subsequently hundreds of trials in the Midwest and other regions showed few yield ...

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Improvement of Soybean (Glycine max L.) Yield with Urea Foliar Application at Growth Stages [PDF]

open access: yesIkufīziyuluzhī-i Giyāhān-i Zirā̒ī, 2017
To investigate the effects of nitrogen foliar application at different growth stages of soybean on the yield and yield components this experiment was performed in Shush, north of Khuzestan, Iran, during growing season of 2014. The experiment was in split

Assessing populations of the major cereal pathogens for reduced sensitivity to MBC, DMI and Strobilurin fungicides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
End of project reportStudies of eyespot populations in winter wheat crops in the period 2001 to 2003 showed that the R type (Tapesia acuformis) is the dominant strain comprising 77% of isolates. Over 90% of isolates were resistant to MBC fungicides, 53%

FOLIAR APPLICATION OF HUMIC ACIDS ON STRAWBERRY (CV ONDA)

open access: yesActa Horticulturae, 2002
In June-bearing strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa L.), soil nutrient uptake has two major peaks during fall and spring growth. After the beginning of fruit maturation in late spring, nitrogen moves directly from leaves to fruit and its soil uptake is negligible.
